Mikhael Paskalev

Mikhael Paskalev is a Norwegian-Bulgarian artist who took the world by storm when he released his debut single "I Spy" in 2012. Unfortunately, I was two minutes late for this performance, so when I arrived, Mikhael Paskalev stood with his guitar and played the first song. He played eight songs in total. He sang "Susie", "What's Life Without Loosers", "Woman" and "I Spy", among others. After the first song, another girl, Billie Van, came up on stage and sang with him. Mikhael talked between each song and briefly explained what the next song he was going to sing was about. I thought this was good, because he was quite funny. When he was going to play "I Spy" he didn't bring a harmonica, so they tried to whistle, which was pretty funny. When he sang "Woman" he barely stopped to tune his guitar a bit. I didn't think it mattered, because he didn't stop completely, and he recovered well. I thought this was a really good concert, because I think he's good and I like his songs. He talked just the right amount and made us laugh from time to time. He sang a lot of good songs, both very calm and relaxing, such as "Woman", and some with a bit more life in them, such as "I Spy".
